Look...this book may be better than I found it. It's just that I couldn't get into the book. I tried. The reviews I read about this told how it crept into their psyche and haunted them...terror, horror. So I picked it up (happily from the library). Mr. Koontz can write a good book. I've read some of them. He can write interesting and wonderfully weird characters, I've read some of them to. But not here...at least not for me. I found Susan one of the most annoying characters I've come across. IfSpooky and sinister, The House of Thunder often works on pure suspense and tells an unforgettable story.
Horror meets Harlequin Romance. No thanks.
Loved it! You never know what's real !!
After The House of Thunder - which I happily abandoned after 50 pages - I think it is time to re-access my Dean Koontz shelf in the bookcase. I think it's time to make some room for someone else's books where his currently sit :(
Considering the 27 tally of 'she' and 'her' in the first page alone, I did not have high hopes for this book. It was almost painful to get through the beginning - so much focus on the tiny details that I found myself skimming through entire paragraphs (shocking, I know!).Interactions between Susan and co. were strange, to say the least. I've never read such 'stiff' or 'forced' dialogue before - especially the banter between the two assistant nurses. Almost two pages of single lines piggybacking
